Here is the build instructions for a resonant EFHW. For my home QTH antenna with my 100 watt FT-450D I use two cores which ups the efficiency of the transformer. I used 14 gage wire to wind the

I just ordered the commercial version. I'll post results as soon as I get them.

There is also a Facebook page "End Fed Half Wave Antenna". Once you join look in the files section. The one page direction can be viewed in the link to the YouTube video. I can send the file once

I like this idea, Dan. Do you have a commercial version that you favor?

Where would I get the build directions? Thanks, Rowland

That sounds so good I changed my mind. I’d put up what Dan suggests. -p W7PFB 73, Don’t forget to smile and have fun!

The easiest way to get on the air is using what many SOTA operators use. A resonant end fed half wave antenna using a 49:1 transformer. You can buy on line or easily make your own. With 131 feet of

I’d be inclined to put up a 135’ long OCFD if you have the space. I like the Buckmaster one because it’s pretty bomb-proof but it’s not magically better than all the other variants

As mentioned there are several options. The easiest would be an end fed zep. Not the best option but will work. I have used one on several occasions in the field and had good success. Get one end up

I am available. Thanks, Rowland

Probably 30 feet high max.

What bands do you want to cover? And how high can you easily get an antenna (trees, etc)? -p W7PFB 73, Don’t forget to smile and have fun!

Focus is on ease, not price.

I can help.

I used this for all my test study and preparation. It is very good at working with weak spots with quizzes that drill on those areas. Good references to supplemental materials. Gary

How much do you want to spend? There are G5RVs, Off center fed dipoles, end feed zeps, certified and so on -- Thanks, Rowland

Hey Folks, At the online SnoVARC meeting last week we discussed the possibility of running a Technician level online class. We have 20 students who jumped at the chance. Next step is to find folks
